Calibre library Offline#
This is issue relates to this current setup with the Nextcloud as storage, as it’s running on my own server and sometimes can be offline which can cause data un-sync on desktops. Pitfalls – merging the metadata.db with Nextcloud Out from the box Calibre Web has two themes – the light one, default: WantedBy=multi-user.target Calibre Web themes and will use WebDAV from our phone to connect to the Nextcloud using Moon+ Readerĭocker-compose -f calibre-compose.yml up -dĪ unit-file creation is described in the Linux: systemd сервис для Docker Compose, in this case, I’d added a /etc/systemd/system/rvice file: ĮxecStart=/usr/local/bin/docker-compose -f calibre-compose.yml upĮxecStop=/usr/local/bin/docker-compose -f calibre-compose.yml down.will mount a directory from the Nextcloud with Calibre’s library.run a Calibre Web instance in Docker – a web interface for a library.
Calibre library android#
So, now I have my library itself is stored in a Nextcloud (see the Nextcloud: running in Docker Compose on Debian with Let’s Encrypt SSL post), and I’ll use the Moon+ Reader application on my Android devices as it can synchronize read position via WebDAV.Īlso, you can use Google Drive as a storage backend for Calibre Web, read the docs. The idea is to move away from storing books in Google Books and using its e-book reader on mobile and via a browser but still to be able to access my library from anywhere and to have have a book’s reading position synchronization ability, as it is in the Google Books mobile and browser readers. I’m using Calibre for my e-books library management for many years, but until today always used its desktop version.Ī couple of days ago I found the Calibre Web project – the same library, working with the same database, but accessible via a browser. For example we can make a selection of these and save it on an external drive such as a USB memory. In the event that we do not want to delete them forever from the Calibre library, we can always change their location and store them for the future. On the other hand, the most radical solution, but sometimes more than necessary, is to get rid of all those electronic books that we consider as expendable. Remove books from the Calibre library that we are not going to use Obviously this also saves space on the equipment. And it is that it is in charge of helping us locate and eliminate those duplicate ebooks in the same library. Well, this program that we are talking about has a complement that we can activate that will be very helpful. On many occasions, especially if the Personal Calibre library is very voluminous, we find a good number of repeated titles. If that is not something important to you, surely this elimination will save you a good amount of space in the Calibre library Use the duplicate books feature The ebook will remain the same, but the only thing we will not see is its cover when marking it. This is usually a conventional photographic file, so we can always do without it.
Delete cover photos of ebooksĪlong with the file of the book as such, whatever format it is, many times the photo of its cover is attached independently. In this way, the libraries that we do not need at that time can be saved on external drives so as not to spend on the PC’s own hard disk. Therefore, to solve this problem, what we can do is create several of these independent libraries.įor example, we can divide the ebooks among them by themes, types of use, or needs. This is a lot of disk space in some cases, space that we might need for other system purposes. Remove books from the Calibre library that we are not going to use Divide the Calibre library into severalĪs we mentioned before, the same electronic book library in these times can be made up of thousands of titles.
